15. We've had little thunder and lightning...

Over the past weeks but enough rain to make it look like it used to back in the 70s and 80s around here, green and lush. The past several years we'd be well on our way to brown with smoky skies. Nice change for once. I did watch a cloud go by the other night that was producing heat lightning, no real thunder but an excellent light show, went on for over an hour. Used to watch those back in Wisconsin when I lived there.

I haven't had to do much watering so far. I see the river is really high but not flooding here, Billings is getting a little flooding though, quite a few more rivers have dumped into it by then. Over here, the first tributary for the Yellowstone is the Sheilds River, it's kind of flooding.

Otherwise, I am thankful for the below +80F temps too. My plants are all growing and not burning up, amazing, I almost forgot what that was like.
